Author Topic: Do you miss BL terrains? Do you think they'll come back in the future?  (Read 2464 times)

I wonder If Badspot misses the bedroom, and regrets removing It.

Seriously, it only takes 1 person to tell op to lock the topic, not goddamn 50 people.




Im not gonna lie here I do miss skiing on the slopes, and I do miss having fortwars in the sahara desert, but the shadows and shaders (even though it removes terrain) has a high advantage over the old system mostly because blockland runs smoother for me, and the day cycle is just plain amazing. I have been wanting a day/night cycle in Blockland since forever and now that it has one by default my mind has simply been blown.

Long story short, yes I miss terrain but I find the newer system to be much better.

If terrains DO manage to come back in the future I am almost positive the maps will be out of brick-style terrain and not torques default terrain system.

Also, I have a copy of Blockland v19 so if I ever want to play with terrains I can do so

Is it possible to make a single brick like the size of a large terrain map? Don't make fun of me, I know nothing about scripting or modeling.

It's possible, but people would spend forever just downloading the file from your server, and plus it would only be paintable with one color, like all bricks. Although there could be other colors (depending upon the modeler and how much time they spend) but honestly I would rather build a unique terrain instead of having a basic brick terrain.

I can see how this idea might be cool for very basic terrains such as rounded hills and pits, but still, people would be pissed at the loading time lol, unless we are talkin bout a simple 64x64 brick that can be in a pattern and still look legit


Shaders are great for lag-fests.
